All programs of the School commence in the Fall semester. The deadline for application for admission is March 1.

The deadline for application for readmission, for students who were previously admitted to a School program, is June 1 for the Fall semester, October 1 for Winter, and February 1 for Spring.

Application forms are available in person from the School's General Office and the Office of the Registrar or through the School's website at www.mun.ca/hkr. Applications forms may also be obtained by writing the School of Human Kinetics and Recreation, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's, NL, A1C 5S7 or the Office of the Registrar, Admissions Office, Memorial University of Newfoundland, St. John's, NL, A1C 5S7.

Applicants applying to more than one program must submit separate application forms and supporting documentation for each program.

All applications for admission or readmission must be submitted to the Office of the Registrar. A complete application includes an application to the University (for those who have not attended Memorial University of Newfoundland in the two preceding semesters), an application to the School, an autobiographical statement, and any other required supporting documentation. Application fees must be paid when the application forms are submitted.

In addition to these requirements, students applying to the physical education programs must:

submit a current first aid certificate, and

complete the School's swim test. Students applying from outside St. John's should call the School's General Office at (709) 737-8130 to contact the swim test co-ordinators to arrange for testing. In lieu of the School swim test, a level 8 Red Cross or other credential satisfactory to the School may be accepted. Students unable to complete the swim test requirement before beginning their program must successfully complete this requirement by the end of October of their first semester of admission to the program. Failure to do so will result in the student being required to withdraw from the program at the end of their first semester.
